@lewm  : He has or posted nothing that needs " defend " it.  He, as some of us, is spot on the whole issue.   Your latest posts seems to me that posted to justify in some way that you are satisfied with the wrong VIV tonearm but due that you lik...

Dear @intactaudio and friends: The link you posted shows only that it’s the first time that that distortion was measured. Rigth from the begin of the digital medium/CD almost all started to talk about the CD jitter and almost at the same time so...

Dear @intactaudio : You don’t get it my point or I can’t explain it in the rigth wat but your charts goes exactly on what I listening during those yesterday tests: the overhang change/error produce a kind of distortion that’s detected when the al...

Dear @drbarney1  : You are totally rigth: " makes the " cure " only worse ".   But even that huge VIV offset angle the issue is that has no " detectable " listen distortions but the other way around:   " Suffice to say that each of the 3 cartr...

Dear @intactaudio : Why the stylus shape can affect the alignment?   Linear offset is the same always in both Löfgren A and B alignments if we don’t change the must inner groove and must outer grove distances. If you have a cartridge /tonearm ...

Dear friends: I forgot to post on the protractor manufacturers that speak of Stevenson alignment that ( as with Lögren ) Stevenson alignment does not exist but Stevenson A and Stevenson B and no one of those manufacturers an even tonearm manufactu...

Dear friends: Even that lewm posted that it's not the main subject in the thread and yes it's not however I consider that's important for each one audiophile knowledge levels and especially because in this thread we are talking of tonearm/cartridg...

Dear @lewm  : Any one can argue about because it's a way incomplete ideal tonearm description that I'm not willing to " take " this time. In the other side what you posted:   " the stylus should always ride right down the middle of the groove. "...

Dear friends: Maybe some of you already experienced that we did some mistakes when were doing the cartridge alignment with either Löfgren A or B. Well, I did it like 2-3 times with out take in count my alignment errors that were in the overhang: 2...

@lewm  :  It is totally obvous for any audiophile that that " special "/different sound quality is due to tonearm/cartridge big angle error over the LP groove modulations.   I mentioned that bearing low tonearm friction only because the designer...

Dear @lewm : My toughts about that headshell and damping issues are trying to understand why with that calculated ( wbf ) " huge " angle error you like it. So with the usual headshell and Löfgren A/B real alignment a comparison could tell us or ...

@lewm  : Do you tested the tonearm with out O rings ? So, for your last post means that there is no way to turn the cartridge in the tonearm headshell. Sometimes and depending of the headshell the cartridge can turn just a little but permits it b...

Dear @lewm  : "  main goal was lowest possible friction. Hence the pivot floating on an oil bath. " So,what you are experienced with is that the arm wand is " truly free " to make sudden horizontal/vertical movements with even lower true unipivot...
